We used diy-kitchens.co.uk and you're right you do have to know exactly what you want but their support team were good in explaining things to us and we got a lot more for our buck than what Wren/others were offering (though again, you're right with timing sales etc).
Didn't spot the quidco cash back offer though - snazzy @MrDrem
We tried rated people to get kitchen quotes and got three. One was leagues ahead of the others and while a bit more expensive it includes someone project managing it and knowing all the things that need to be known. If I was doing it myself I'd no-doubt miss out on things. They have another job at the same time so it's a bit slower than it might be but I suspect it's also cheaper by sharing the labour between another site.
We are looking at kitchen quotes as we speak too...
Our thoughts are:
B & Q\Wickes: Cheap, flat pack, not worth it
Howdens: Good prices, decent quality
Wren Kitchens: Similar price to howdens, some fancier components, all down to timing the sales
Magnet: Not worth the money
Ikea: Good for modern style kitchens, but fittings are a bit odd
diy-kitchens.co.uk : Cheapest for decent quality, but need to know exactly what you want...
We are going with Wren kitchens with worktops from http://www.worktop-express.co.uk/ as it worked out cheaper and better quality
